     Organization and Structure of Regulations on Survivor Annuities


    (a) This subpart explains the annuity benefits payable in the event 
of the death of employees, retirees, and Members; the actions that 
employees, retirees, Members, and their current spouses, former spouses, 
and eligible children must take to qualify for survivor annuities; and 
the types of evidence required to demonstrate entitlement to provide 
survivor annuities or qualify for survivor annuities.
    (b) Unless otherwise specified, this subpart, except Secs. 831.682 
and 831.683 and the provisions relating to children's survivor 
annuities, only applies to employees and Members who retire under a 
provision of law that permits election of a reduced annuity to provide a 
survivor annuity.
